Cyber liability insurance can help with regulatory obligations after a breach, including notification costs, legal counsel, and response to regulatory investigations. Some policies also cover regulatory fines and penalties where they are insurable by law, as well as payment card industry assessments.
Colorado’s data breach law (C.R.S. 6-1-716) requires businesses to notify affected Colorado residents within 30 days of determining that a breach occurred, and to notify the Colorado Attorney General when 500 or more residents are affected. Those notification and response costs are exactly what cyber coverage is designed to help with.
